IRMF/IPEM Diagnostic X-ray Intercomparison Jan 2007 - Participants: Hospital Medical Physicists/Clinical Scientists QA Radiographers
IEC 61267 Medical diagnostic x-ray equipment – radiation conditions for use in the determination of characteristics Uniform sets of radiation conditions RQR: Radiation beam emerging from x-ray set RQA: Radiation beam emerging from patient RQR-M Mammography x-ray beams Standard X-ray beams…..
Tertiary standard (loaned by RRPPS): Keithley 15cc & 150cc ion chambers Likely equipment used by participants: ion chambers semiconductor photo diode (Pb backing) in combination with kV measuring capabilities (multimeter) Equipment
Traceability? Ion chamber v photodiode? Estimation of uncertainty? Effects of generator/waveform? energy response? Results?
